Urgh. I’m sorry. But I know how you feel. My partner’s grandma recently died, we had the funeral a week ago. It’s horrible but over the last few years I’ve been through the same. A mixture of cancers and terrible accidents.

I feel like the world might be ending. I’m not a fan of growing up. It sounds lame but just be happy that you knew those people (and pets) better to live a life with great people and animals then to not know them.

It’s tough but I keep telling myself that.

Big hugs

Ah Emma thats a truely horrible time you have had Its scary how frail life can be and what can go wrong. Dealing with death is the biggest event that can happen to anyone in life and the hardest to cope with. With the more time that passes and as cliched as it sounds, recently i keep reminding myself we must make the most of life, people and what we have while we have it! and at the very least you have us crazyfaces so you’re never alone or short of people that you can always offload to

Here’s a big ol’ virtual hug Emma. I’m so sorry you’ve had all these things to deal with. I’ve felt before that the universe was ‘ganging up’ on me, and sadly these things do sometimes seem to happen all at once. I’ve had quite a few experiences of death close to me as well but thankfully all have been sudden and I can’t imagine the strain of knowing that a death from terminal illness is approaching with each day that passes. You say though that you “can’t cope” with death – and yet you have done so many times already. Crying in front of the mirror or running out of a church doesn’t mean you can’t cope, it means you are grieving – the emotions you felt are a normal and indeed necessary part of the process. Death is horrible and hard and gut wrenching and at the time you feel like you will never breathe easy again – but you do, and you will, when all this is over. In the meantime just you take it one day at a time x

It is horrible & upsets me thinking to the days where I am facing the same situation as you. So I truly send my love & hugs from the bottom of my heart as watching someone just die in front of you is the most soul destroying thing you ever have to deal with. Just remember we are all here for you and love you ever so much <3
